Dear Karen:
We have conducted a study of our parking needs related to the
addition proposed for our building on Chestnut Street, in
accordance with the site plan conditions of September 23 , 1992 .
According to the Planning Board and general Town of North
Andover regulations, we are required to add 19 additional parking
spaces as shown on the plan. It is my understanding that the
Planning Board wishes to reduce the additional parking spaces in a
discretionary manner.
A random survey taken frequently over the last 1®1/2 years
(since we completed our last addition) , indicates a need for new
parking spaces. We are planning to add additional employees
consistent with the construction of ten additional offices (plus
support) . At any point in time due to the shortage of current
parking spaces, 10-15 cars are randomly parked in unassigned areas,
or are otherwise in the way of other traffic during the day.
Summarizing, we need the required 199 additional parking spaces
and we would appreciate the Planning Board's concurrence,,
Fortunately, we can offer employment gains for North Andover,
Thank you for your consideration,
Vemery truly, yours,
N

Dear Jim:
We are currently ready to commence an approximate 7 , 000 to
8 , 000 sq. ft. addition to our Watts ' headquarters building on
Chestnut Street. Owing to conventional "bureaucracy" , there is a
site plan review process which sponsors a public hearing on
September 15th concerning our request . You have publicly
committed to streamline the process in order to make approval of
the necessary permits expedient and in this case we are
specifically asking for your personal attention . The cold
weather will advance shortly, architectural drawings are in
process, and it 's important that we are granted the necessary
permits without " extraneous " requests . The last time we
undertook an addition, several weeks were required to clear this
process .
Thanks for your attention to this important subject. We
would like to begin construction in late September.
Very truly yours ,
TS GULATOR, OMPANY
